ezyzip How to Zip and Unzip a File Online

If you’re stuck on a public machine and you can’t install a file zipping utility, ezyZip is the free and easy way to make the most of the situation – so bookmark this page, because you will need it one day :)

ezyZip allows you to zip files, add zipped files to an existing archive, and unzip files all from within the browser, and it even comes with a nifty drag and drop interface.

Here is the most important thing you should know about ezyZip.  Unlike most online file zipping utilities, ezyZip does NOT require you to upload the file to process it.  This is very important because it is simply not feasible to upload large files, process them on a remote server and download them again.  This can take ages and in many cases, the length of time involved, defeated the purpose of zipping it up to be smaller.  With ezyZip, everything runs locally via java on the browser, and it works as if it was an installed app.

Highly recommended.
